There were two island groups in the Netherlands Antilles, both in the Lesser Antilles. The ABC islands of Aruba, Bonaire, and CuraÃ§ao are in the Leeward Antilles just off the Venezuelan coast, and the SSS islands of Sint Maarten, Saba, and Sint Eustatius are in the Windward Islands southeast of the Virgin Islands.
Urine therapy also known as urotherapy involves using your own urine as a healing ingredient. Urine contains 95 percent water, 2.5 percent urea, and the rest is a combination of salt, various minerals, enzymes, and hormones that contain essential nutrients. When applied onto the skin with a clean, damp cloth as a beauty treatment, urine can clear up psoriasis, eczema, and acne.
Perineal skin and the skin on the scrotum already have the highest rates of TEWL on the body, and when TEWL is increased, delicate skin is even more susceptible to breakdown. Urine can affect skin in multiple ways. The water in urine decreases skin hardness, which makes it more susceptible to friction and erosion. The ammonia in urine can raise the skin's pH, promote the growth of pathogens, disrupt the skin's acid mantle, activate fecal enzymes and alter the skin's normal flora (the microorganisms that reside on the skin). 2 Moisture can also make skin more susceptible to damage from friction and shear during repositioning.
